Jeff was Johnny on the spot, kept water glass filled, made great summer cocktails--Jeff you Rock! Welcoming atmosphere in a small space with large vibes. Lets get to the food. Appetizers ordered were 3 Meatballs and Mango Jalapeno Wings. Delightful to say the least. I chose Uncle Joey and my sister chose the Blackened Chicken Wrap which were awesome and very flavorful. All food was complimented by the awesome Summer Cocktails. We tried the Tropical Splash-- I just needed one really;-)--for now. All in all a very successful foray. We'll be back soon.

The parking situation is interesting, there are a few spots behind/besides the building, curb parking in front, and then a dirt area that it doesn't look like you can park in, but people do. The food is consistently good. I've had their salads, sandwiches, pizza and a few dinner specials. They also usually have several seasonal cocktails. Inside, you seat yourself and someone greets you quickly. Outside, I think they want you to make contact with a server first, and then sit down. Everyone I've encountered here has been very nice and service is quick. I make a point to stop in when in the area.

I totally missed the "order here" sign but a person in the cashier line pointed me to it. There I got a hot dog with chili, mustard, and slaw. The woman at the cashier was very friendly and kind. I'm guessing she was the manager. The hot dog was ready by the time I got to the front of the line. Speedy service. I sat down at one of the nice wooden tables they have inside. The hot dog was...just ok. I'm a big fan of cole slaw and this dog just had a dollop on it and was pretty light on mustard. I wouldn't mind that as much except that I didn't love the chili taste. I can't put my finger on it, but the flavor was just not what I love. This place is super cute and clearly a local institution. I'd recommend other folks go by and try it.

I went for the Shrimp and Grits for my entree. A good choice, a nice serving of tender shrimp on top of creamy grits and a rich brown gravy.

It's your basic hamburger and hotdog spot, I ordered a double cheeseburger with chili and slaw and a small french fry. The cheeseburger was okay, but all the flavor came from the chili and slaw, that Hamburg patties did not have any flavor at all. Price were okay but how hard is it to dump a bag of crinkle cut fries and a fryer? Overall I think it's a once and done type place, I really don't see any reason to go back.

From the very first spoonful, the texture stands out -- unbelievably smooth, rich, and creamy without feeling overly heavy. It has a silkiness that melts perfectly on your tongue, creating a luxurious experience that regular ice cream just can't quite match. The flavor is equally impressive. The vanilla tastes pure and authentic, with a subtle sweetness that never overwhelms your palate. Instead of being sugary, it delivers a balanced, comforting taste that feels both indulgent and refreshing at the same time. You can tell it's made fresh -- every bite has that just-churned quality that elevates it beyond typical frozen treats.
